Chapter 11 

Ryan spent days searching for Tessa, but there was no trace of her

It was as though she had vanished without a trace

His worry gnawed at him day and night, desperately hoping for any news of Tessa

But all he received were waves of disappointment

He sat in silence in that house, refusing to answer the calls from Chloe

A feeling of disgust now filled his eyes whenever he thought of her

If it weren’t for her, Tessa would never have left him 

Turning off his phone, Ryan shut himself off from any news about Chloe

He rummaged through every drawer, searching for somethinganythingthat Tessa might have left behind

But there was nothing

The only item he found was a medical report, crumpled and tossed into the trash

His gaze fixed on the marks on the paper, and it hit himTessa had given six vials of blood

He knew that Tessa couldn’t handle pain

The doctor had once told him that because of the abuse she had suffered at the hands of pack members when she was y younger

tolerance was far lower than most, making even small pains feel excruciating

Ryan’s grip tightened around the report, his breath coming in short, frantic bursts

His mind replayed the scene from that day

Tessa had known by then

She had known everything 

She must have hated him so muchenough to leave without a single word, without even a trace

Not even a message

her pain 

He remembered when he and Tessa first acknowledged each other as mates, when he vowed to protect her for life and shield her from 

any pain 

Now, all of Tessa’s pain was because of him

He admitted it he regretted it all

Meanwhile, Chloe called Ryan again and again, but once her calls went unanswered due to his phone being off, she snapped

In a fit of rage, she hurled her phone onto the floor

All because of Tessa? He won’t even pick up the phone for days!” 

Furious, she stormed into Tessa’s old room

Sull clinging to the fear that Tessa would return, she packed up everything lett behind, cramming it into a box 

Burn itGet rid of it 

As the maid carrying the box passed Audrey, she immediately recognized it

Without needing to ask, Audrey knew it was Tessa’s

Days had passed, and still, there was no sign of Tessa

heart

Even Audrey, who had always been indifferent toward her, couldn’t shake the growing sense e of dread in her

She grabbed the maid’s arm

Leave it there. Don’t touch it.‘ 

Audrey had grown numb to Chloe’s tantrums by now. She didn’t feel the need to comfort her anymore

Instead, she turned to open the box, wondering what was left behind by Tessa

She remembered that Tessa had packed her things once before she should have taken everything with her

What could possibly be lett

Curiosity piqued, Audrey opened the box. Her eyes widened in shock when she saw what was inside

Old ragged dolls and stuffed animals, along with a diary

As she flipped it open, she saw crooked handwriting scrawled across the pages

The date at the bottom indicated it was written when Tessa was just ten years old

Mom lied to me again. And Chloeshe took my doll from me” 

As Audrey flipped further through the pages, the entries continued until Tessa was fifteen

Mom and Dad don’t believe me anymore. But I’m their real daughter. Why don’t they like me?” 

I understand now why Chloe keeps asking me about my pastit’s so she can make Mom and Dad believe her

Audrey 

read the words, the bitterness and pain leaping off the pages

It was as if she was just now getting to know the daughter she had abandoned

And then, she spotted something else in the box: a full moonshaped necklace

Her hands trembled as she picked it up, her breath catching in her throat

She could barely hold back the tears as memories flooded back 

When Tessa was born, Audrey had personally placed this necklace around her daughter’s neck

It was something she had almost forgottenuntil now

Audrey recalled how Tessa would stand before her, trembling, always too afraid to speak up

So many times, Tessa had tried to offer her something, but Audrey had dismissed her, interrupting her each time

Now, looking at the necklace in her hand, Audrey realized the truthTessa, the one she had pushed away, was her real daughter

When Tessa turned eighteen, Audrey had stopped giving her an allowance. Every cent Tessa earned, she did so on her own, working Urelessly day and night

Audrey had seen Tessa come home at three in the morning, seen her linfsh her work at five

Yet, at the time, Audrey y never once cared

Now, as the weight of her neglect crushed her, Audrey could hardly breathe

All of Tessa’s suffering the pain, the lonelinesshad been caused by her

Audrey collapsed onto the floor, her tears falling uncontrollably

Each time she thought of how Tessa had tried to speak, but Audrey hadn’t listened, regret overwhelmed her
